Mathematical Methods in Science and Engineering
Explore mathematical frameworks for understanding and solving practical problems. Examine basic concepts in multidimensional real analysis, ordinary differential equations and dynamical systems, elementary calculus of variations, Hilbert space theory and duality, Sturm-Liouville theory, Lax-Milgram and Babuska-Necas Theorems, and applications to partial differential equations. Only one of the following may be counted: Aerospace Engineering 380P (Topic 2), Computational Science, Engineering, and Mathematics 386L, Engineering Mechanics 386L. Three lecture hours a week for one semester.
